[quote=Anonymous]It is absolutely a cultural American thing. Bragging about how advanced their kid is, gushing about every positive comment they’ve ever received (“Our pediatrician says she is SO advanced for her age!”) etc etc etc. I’ve actually started doubting myself for this reason - as much as I love my child I absolutely see his weaknesses and room for improvement and I’m pretty open about it. Is this bad? Am I not being supportive enough? Is my kid going to grow up a neurotic self doubting mess like me? Where I’m from openly talking about these things is pretty normal, but here I never encounter it. [/quote]
